School starting always brings this topic to the forefront. I’m really excited to share this with you because it's so close to my heart. Focus has always been a big deal in our home. It's actually what introduced us to essential oils in the first place.

Let me tell you about my youngest son, Kyle. He was diagnosed with ADHD in elementary school. Like any mom, I was desperate to find something that would help him. When I discovered essential oils, I decided to give them a try. Honestly, I was blown away by the results. Essential oils made ALL the difference for Kyle. He was able to focus better, and we saw such a positive change in his behavior. From that moment, we were hooked as a family.

But it didn't stop there. Every time a new issue popped up, we turned to essential oils first. I don't know why, but it surprised me every single time they worked. I would literally run to my husband and excitedly share the latest success. It felt so empowering to have something natural that worked so well and so quickly!

Focus issues aren’t just about ADHD. As moms, we’re juggling a million things at once, and staying focused can feel impossible. Our kids struggle with focus too, even if they don’t have ADHD.

So I want to share some tools that have been lifesavers for us. These essential oils can help everyone in the family improve their focus and concentration, supporting our brains so we can tackle those important tasks and get down to business.

Here’s to more focused days and achieving all we need to get done!

Top Natural Ways to support Focus and Concentration Issues

Vetiver, Serenity, and Balance

I have to share something that's been a total lifesaver for us. When my son was struggling with focus, these three oils were our go-to solution. And let me tell you, they made such a difference! We also used the InTune blend (more on that below).

Here’s the magic mix: combine 20 drops of each oil in a 10mL roller bottle, then top it off with fractionated coconut oil. Shake well before each use.

We used this blend every morning before my son headed off to school. Just roll it on the back of the neck, wrists, and the bottoms of the feet before putting socks on. This keeps the oil from rubbing off on the floor and ensures it stays where it’s needed.

But these oils aren’t just for focus – they’re incredibly versatile!

• Vetiver is one of my absolute favorites for sleep. It’s so grounding and helps calm the mind.

• Serenity is another sleep hero and great for all things calming. Perfect for those chaotic days when everyone’s emotions are running high.

• Balance is an everyday staple. It’s amazing for helping everyone have a good, grounded day.

Honestly, I can't say enough about how these oils helped us. They were such an important part of our daily routine. Give them a try and see the difference they can make!

InTune

When my son was in elementary school, we found a way to make his day a little easier with this oil blend. We’d pack it in his backpack, and he’d apply it during lunchtime on the bottoms of his feet. He'd sneak into the bathroom to do this so he wouldn’t draw attention to himself, which made him feel more comfortable.

The bottoms of the feet are a fantastic spot if your child is worried about the smell drawing attention. They can roll it on, slip on their socks, and the oil gets absorbed without anyone else noticing the scent.

But don't underestimate the power of smelling the oils! It gives direct access to the brain, so applying it on the back of the neck can be super effective too. It’s all about what your child feels most comfortable with.

This blend is a mix of Amyris, Patchouli, Frankincense, Lime, Ylang Ylang, ‘Iliahi (Hawaiian Sandalwood), and Roman Chamomile essential oils. It’s high in limonene and α-pinene, which are known for their calming properties.

Finding what works best for your child can make such a difference in their day. Give it a try and see how it helps!

Adaptiv System

I have to share with you another fantastic option that has come out in recent years: the Adaptiv line. It's been a game changer for our family. Designed to work together, these products are also great on their own.

First, there's the undiluted oil, perfect for using straight out of the bottle or in a diffuser. Then there's the diluted rollerbottle, which is super convenient for grab-and-go use. Plus, there's a supplement that really enhances the effects when used alongside the topical essential oil blend.

All of these products are amazing, and you'll love the smell too! They help you manage stress and anxious feelings, making a noticeable difference in your day-to-day life.

Thinker

Thinker Focus Blend is like a special mix of oils that helps kids and grown-ups concentrate better. It has gentle scents from Vetiver, Peppermint, Clementine, and Rosemary mixed with coconut oil so it's not too strong.

Kids can use it before tests or homework to help them focus without the smell being too strong. Grown-ups can use it too, especially when they need to concentrate at work. Just a little on your wrists or hands can help you think clearly and stay on task. It's a great choice for anyone who wants to focus better without a strong smell.
